ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT

The Free Eagle Project ends on Wednesday November 20th and, even though I am a long way from reaching my goal, stranger things have happened. Please share my project with your family and friends and hopefully our combined efforts will prove successful.

Thanks to all of you for your support!

EXCITING NEW REWARD! 

Since Kickstarter will not allow me to give away my original bald eagle paper sculpture I feel I owe it to the Kickstarter community to make it available at special pricing for the duration of my project. One backer will have the opportunity to own my one-of-a-kind original valued at $25,000 at the never before seen price of $10,000. (This is the maximum amount that Kickstarter will allow for any single reward.) Your sculpture will ship fully insured to your door in a beautiful custom frame protected by a custom built crate. Plus you will receive all other project rewards including an extremely rare, pre-production giclee as your limited edition print.

Thanks very much for your support.

BACKER Q&A

Q:  What specifically did not comply with Kickstarter's guidelines?

A:  All of the giveaway portions of my original rewards had to be removed in order to move forward with my project. I had initially planned to give away my original sculpture to one of my backers from the $150 level and above as well as award a print from the limited edition to one out of every ten backers from the $20 and $25 levels.

Thanks very much for your support!

THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY

This is the short version of the "story behind the story" of my Kickstarter project.

The original goal of my project was to produce a limited print edition based on my original bald eagle paper sculpture and, if fully funded, award the original sculpture to one of my backers. I emailed Kickstarter three months prior to launch asking if my project as described above was appropriate for their platform. They replied with:

"YES IT WILL WORK PERFECTLY."

I spent the next three months building the project and submitted it once again for approval prior to launch and this time the email I received from Kickstarter read:

"EVERYTHING FALLS WITHIN OUR GUIDELINES. HOORAY!" 

I launched the very same day and less than 24 hours later, after receiving over $1800 in pledges and building promising momentum, I was notified by Kickstarter that my project did NOT comply with their guidelines and that I would have to change my terms and remove all giveaway portions from my project in order to move forward.

And that brings us to today: because I've put a tremendous amount of work into sculpting the original and building my project for Kickstarter, I decided to move forward and have modified my project and eliminated all giveaways, which I had originally planned to handle through my website but have since been advised not to do so for legal reasons. If you are still interested in supporting The Free Eagle Project, please fund at one of the current reward tiers.

Thanks very much for your support!
